DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0027] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: a hidden external water cut, including an external water cut 2 installed in a door sheet metal 3.
[0028] The door sheet metal 3 is composed of a door outer panel 3a and a door outer panel reinforcement plate 3b which are fixedly connected to each other. The door outer panel reinforcement plate 3b is provided with an outer water-cut mounting hole. The outer water-cut mounting hole is a combination of a first outer water-cut mounting hole 3ba and a second outer water-cut mounting hole 3bb or a rectangular outer water-cut mounting hole 3bh. The first outer water-cut mounting hole 3ba and the second outer water-cut mounting hole 3bb are installed in the following manner: Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the installation method of the rectangular external water cut installation hole 3bh is as follows Figure 4 shown.
[0029] The outer water cut 2 includes a base 2a, a first lip 2b, a second lip 2c and a third lip 2e. The back of the base 2a is provided with a first clip structure 2aa and a second clip structure 2ab. The base 2a is made of plastic extrusion molding or injection molding. The first clip structure 2aa and the second clip structure 2ab are installed on the base 2a by local punching or injection molding after extrusion molding.
[0030] The first clamping structure 2aa is clamped in the first outer water-cut mounting hole 3ba, and the second clamping structure 2ab is clamped in the second outer water-cut mounting hole 3bb. The first clamping structure 2aa and the second clamping structure 2ab complete the clamping connection of the base 2a on the door outer panel reinforcement plate 3b.
[0031] Specifically, the first limiting surface 2aaa on the first clamping structure 2aa and the second limiting surface 2aba on the second clamping structure 2ab respectively match the third limiting surface 3bf in the first external water cut mounting hole 3ba and the fourth limiting surface 3bg in the second external water cut mounting hole 3bb, thereby completing the limiting between the external water cut 2 and the door outer panel reinforcement plate 3b along the upper and lower directions of the vehicle body.
[0032] The fifth limiting surface 2aab on the first clamping structure 2aa and the sixth limiting surface 2abb on the second clamping structure 2ab are matched with the seventh limiting surface 3bd on the door outer panel reinforcement plate 3b and the eighth limiting surface 3be on the door outer panel reinforcement plate 3b respectively, completing the limitation between the outer water cut 2 and the door outer panel reinforcement plate 3b along the left and right directions of the vehicle body.
[0033] The back of the outer water cut 2 is also provided with a first limiting feature 2g and a second limiting feature 2h, which abut against the mounting surface 3bc of the door outer panel reinforcement plate 3b to complete the limiting between the outer water cut 2 and the door outer panel reinforcement plate 3b along the left and right directions of the vehicle body.
[0034] A first lip 2b is installed at the top of the front side of the base 2a, and a first lip tail end 2ba of the first lip 2b abuts against the door outer panel matching surface 3aa of the door outer panel 3a to seal the gap between the outer watertight section 2 and the door sheet metal 3.
[0035] A second lip 2c is installed at the middle section of the front side of the base 2a, and the second lip matching surface 2ca of the second lip 2c is against the outer side surface 1a of the door glass 1. The outer side of the second sealing lip 2c is covered with a first insulating material 2d, and the contact part 2da on the first insulating material 2d is in contact with the outer side surface 1a of the door glass, which is used to seal the gap between the door sheet metal 3 and the door glass 1.
[0036] The second lip edge matching surface 2ca of the second lip edge 2c is in elastic contact with the first lip edge matching surface 2bb of the first lip edge 2b, so as to seal the gap between the first lip edge 2b and the second lip edge 2c.
[0037] A third lip 2e is also installed at the rear end of the front side of the base 2a. The outer side of the third lip 2e is covered with a second insulating material 2f to play a buffering role when the door glass 1 is over-pressurized.
[0038] It should be noted that, in this article, relational terms such as first and second, etc. are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device.
[0039] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
